Hi Bill, I hate having to tell you but our little Nova passed away. I told you that he wasn't well and the specialist said it was cancer. He also had a heart murmur. He seemed to get a little better when he has a steroid shot but then in a few days he stopped eating. I held him in my arms and he passed away and I was so sad and still am. It's very hard for me to tell you this. He really was a beautiful and nice dog. He's now with you, Bij and Aimee. We all miss him around here. Hope you are happy and pain free up there with everybody. I don't want to leave here yet but I won't mind when it is time because I miss you so much. Kisses to you and our furry friends. With much love, Sandy
